Repairing a La Cornue range in a hillside estate

Homes in Hillsborough are large and have often been remodeled around a principal kitchen, with a butler’s pantry or wine room beside it. A range may sit in the centre of the main kitchen with a custom hood over it, and a second one might serve a catering kitchen out of sight.

There are no shops inside town, so a missing part means a drive out. Our approach is to diagnose carefully first, so any part is ordered once. Where an estimate includes a part, we say so in writing and schedule a return visit.

The repair itself waits for your approval, as always.

Identifying each unit

A property with a main kitchen and a service kitchen has at least two plates. Look behind a lower door or drawer, on the frame behind the oven door, or under the front edge of the cooktop. Send a photo of each with the location.

Gates, turning space and timing

Give us the code or a contact, and say whether the drive can take a van. If a gate is slow, tell us. A steep, narrow road may change where we park, and the technician may walk the last stretch.

If your kitchen is staffed, tell us who will show us the range and who approves the estimate.

Large kitchens and long duct runs

A grand kitchen may have a hood set high and a duct that climbs through two floors before it reaches the roof. A fan that worked well on a low ceiling can disappoint on a tall one. We look at the hood, the duct path and the make-up air together. Where the fault is in the building structure, we say so and leave that to the contractor.

Houses of this size also often have several gas appliances on one supply. Mention any other work done on the line recently, since a change elsewhere can affect the range.
